Get an Overview of Existing Load Cases#

The Viewer provides an overview of all existing load cases in the SOFiSTiK CDB database. Click on the loadcase_small button in the context toolbar to open and close the Load cases and results window. You will find here the load case table listing all existing load cases, regardless of their type, source program, or state (with or without results).

Hover over a load case in the load case table to see more detailed information, e.g. the dead load factors or the eigenfrequency.

The icon in the first column of the load case table indicates the load case type:

  • viewer_lc_linear_small Linear

  • viewer_lc_nonlinear_small Non-linear

  • viewer_lc_superposition_small Superposition

  • viewer_lc_influence_small Influence line

  • viewer_lc_eigenmode_small Eigenmode

  • viewer_lc_buckling_small Buckling mode

  • viewer_lc_design_small Design

  • viewer_lc_trainload_small Train load definition

  • viewer_lc_transient_small Transient function

If the project contains any construction stage, use also the load case table to control them. For more information, see Control Construction Stages.

Tip

If the project includes incremental launching steps, you can also use the load case table to control each step of the launching process.
